True. But it's only my technophobe wife who would check emails via the other laptop (I use the method I described for her benefit) and RDP would be a step too far for her.

And in one lesson, we see why web-based and IMAP-based email, which you can access from multiple clients, is preferable to the 1990s view of only using one computer embodied in Outlook.

Outlook is designed to work with Exchange, which it does very well, POP and IMAP are just addons.

Put the Outlook PST file into Dropbox. Then point both installs of Outlook to the Dropbox folder on each computer.

That way, when one Outlook updates the PST file, dropbox will then sync the new file across both dropbox folders so that the laptop Outlook will be accessing exactly the same PST file (along with all your appointments etc.)
